Step into St Blaise Bistro, the closest you’ll get to an authentic Dalmatian "konoba" experience in Sydney. Tucked away in Matraville, this cozy, rustic spot brings the warmth and flavors of Croatia’s coast to the city, with a hint of modern flair. Chef-owner Vedran infuses each dish with the spirit of his heritage, serving handmade seafood risottos, slow-roasted meats, and other hearty Dalmatian classics. With its welcoming terrace and intimate ambiance, St Blaise invites you to relax, enjoy each bite, and embrace the unhurried hospitality of a true konoba—simple, soulful, and unforgettable.

    The food is unbelievable. The freshness and pairing of each ingredient is a delight. Chef was also server which made the experience special as he was able to explain all dishes and recommend the best for what we wanted.

    St Blaise was well worth getting me out of my bubble from the other side of Sydney. The food was fantastic, the service excellent and the ambience had my husband and I pretending we were on a date (no arguments, we were too busy saying how good the meal was)

    This place is really something special and unlike anything else you will find in the area. Vedran cooks with the freshest ingredients and tonight we had most dishes on the menu which are all amazing. He is a fantastic host and one of a kind. We love everything about this little gem.
